On the initial slide with the title and presenter information, I have
these two pieces of LaTeX:
\pgfdeclareimage[height=0.5cm]{institution-logo}{/home/rshepard/data/wpdocs/workshop-presentations/aust-may-2009/aesi-logo.pdf}
\logo{\pgfuseimage{institution-logo}}
But, it's not displaying. Doesn't matter if I specify the logo as .eps or
.pdf, the result of running pdflatex and viewing the result in xpdf is a
box
with "institution-logo" across it. I think this is because when I view
either format, it's in the lower left corner of a letter-size page. I
assume
that what I'm seeing on the slides is the white space above the logo. I
don't know of a tool I have that will let me crop an .eps file. The Gimp
will do the job if I convert it to a raster format, but I suspect I lose a
lot of quality in converting both directions.
I'm not positive, but I don't think it's a cropping issue. That might
account for white space, but I don't think you would see the words
"institution-logo". I think beamer will only display that if it doesn't
have an image to display, which means (if I'm right) that either the
\pgfdeclareimage failed to find the image file or maybe some conversion
error took place. FWIW, I pasted your two lines into my test document,
changed the path to an image I had (I tried both a PDF and a PNG image)
and it worked (both times).
If you haven't already done so, you might check the LaTeX log (to see if
the \pgfdeclareimage command triggered a message).
